Black House by Aaron Lebold

In Olympia, Washington, there exists a last-resort real estate option known to the indigent, downtrodden, and afflicted—the black houses. Nothing good ever happens in these dwellings of despair and squalor. That’s exactly where we find our down-on-her-luck protagonist, residing in a black house, struggling with addiction, failing to make ends meet, and mentally unraveling. The house has plans for her, just as it had its past occupants, which it reveals to her through supernatural echoes of its dark history. Will she escape the Black House or become another of its permanent lost souls?
